Poetic Devices: Sound/Sense in Poetry




Students used the textbook to find examples of “poetic devices” such as Alliteration, Assonance, Consonance, Parallelism, Anaphora, and Repetition. The attached hand-out can be used to find examples. Examples must be cited with Title/ page #/ words that show the example.

Example: “Frederick Douglass” p. 615 beautiful, needful (example of consonance).

Attached is a copy of the hand-out. This hand-out cannot be read by the viewer, but it will download.
